His point is, what is everyone protesting? You mean, other than yet another cop killing someone who shouldn't have been killed? He is a murder who killed a black guy. It happens at least once a day there. I would understand the protest if he wasn't charged but they are bringing a capital case against him. What do they want? |

His point is, what is everyone protesting? You mean, other than yet another cop killing someone who shouldn't have been killed? Bad cop. No doubt. Bound to be a few considering there are over a million in the USA. Who knows the reasons why? I can think of a few. But why 14 months? That is an interesting question but I bet there was a whole lot of negotiating going on and a pretty extensive investigation for them to bring this charge ... assuming they really want it to stick. I still say he will plead insanity and come up with some kind of Chicago cop syndrome. Maybe that is what they were trying to blunt. They really want this to go away quietly. Nothing would be worse than a media hyped trial that the DA loses. |

I would expect the union's lawyer to provide a strong defense, as any defense lawyer would. |

The union can do whatever it wishes to do, within the requirements of law. The first year I worked for the NEA, I took a number of teachers unions out on strike at their request. It was illegal, but the penalty at that time was simply to lose two days pay for each day on strike. It was about the only tool the teachers had to force the administrators to negotiate for a new contract. It was an effective tool. The teachers were not looking for anything massive, but the law said there had to be good faith negotiations...and the strikes helped make that happen. Like many righties, you think capital/management is more important than labor. I don't. |

Teachers work hard for their money but salaries, and paticularly benefits, have gotten out of line with private industry. This will cause a major crisis at some point and force many local school districts into bankruptcy. |

Certainly public sector unions are usually barred from striking but you say you defied that law and feel justified in doing it. You just made my case. I am sure there are a significant number of Chicago cops who support their brother, particularly the active union members. The lawyer is on TV right now saying their position is he was in fear for his life. The last thing Chicago needs in this crime wave is the cops refusing to take calls in black neighborhoods because they think they will be prosecuted if things go bad. |
